Comments & ID Thoughts
Does anyone know what kind of spider this is? My guess is a Southern house spider. I've read that so far it's been found only in the North American region, and i live in Southeast Asia.

I was afraid at first that it was a brown recluse, but it’s not a brown recluse though… Right?
it’s definitely not a brown recluse
It is some sort of Mygalomorph sling. My guess would be some kind of a Tarantula.
Holy sh*t… Yeah, it does look like one… I checked again and southern house spiders don’t seem to have that pronounced spinneret…
I probably should have captured it and released it outside. Far from the house.
Most of us would have kept it as a pet. 🙂
@TangledWeb I would probably do the same!
